Cannot find my game on search

Hi there,

Today I uploaded a new game on the site, but I can't find it on search nor "recently added".

* I set a minium price at the beginning, but when I realized I will release a demo first, I changed it to "No payments". (I am planning to change it back to a price after the Early Access version released)

* I haven't checked any option of Public access settings.

* I haven't uploaded any build yet and the status is still "in development". (Perhaps this is the problem?)

* Game: Tavern Guardians: Banquet

* I received a "Tavern Guardians: Banquet is now published on itch.io" email.

Help me please!

Guess #3 is correct: downloadable games with no files to download don't appear in searches. You might want to add some sort of placeholder until your demo is ready.

Got it! Thank you for the reply!

Hey, just adding to this topic. We're aware that many developers create pre-release pages, so they should be easy to find. We're going have some changes around how we list those pages, but in the meantime I think the best way is to use our devlogs feature, since devlogs are listed for projects even if they don't have files available for purchase or download yet! Hope that helps
